Pork Loin Chops in Apple Cream image

A simple twist on an old Shaker dish. Pork chops are browned, then simmered in an apple cider infusion and finished in half-and-half or cream. Makes a great dinner for two, simple to prepare, hearty enough for him, but delicious by any standards. Can substitute chicken breasts for the pork loin chops.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 (4 ounce) boneless pork loin chops
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 pinch ground allspice
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup half-and-half or cream

Steps:

  • Season pork chops on all sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; set aside. Combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, nutmeg, and allspice in a plastic bag. Toss pork with seasoned flour to coat, and shake off excess.
  • Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until lightly smoking. Sear pork until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Pour in apple cider and bring to a boil. Turn heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until pork is fork tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove pork and keep warm; increase heat to medium-high. Dissolve cornstarch in the chicken broth, and stir into simmering cider; cook for a minute or two until thickened. Stir in the half-and-half and simmer until hot. Serve sauce over the pork chops.

This recipe was okay. The pork chops were a bit dry, but the apple cream sauce was good. I would probably not make this recipe again.
